Honda Cars India has introduced a host of advanced new features in the Honda Connect application. Quoting an excerpt from the press release:

Honda-Connect-Features.png

Personalized & Dynamic Dashboard: This feature allows users to customize their H-Connect app to experience tailored landing home screens, colour schemes, dashboard layouts, and promotional content. The personalized and dynamic dashboard ensures the app experience aligns with individual preferences, enhancing engagement and convenience. The widget on the phone’s homescreen allows direct access to key used features and important reminders.

Digitalised Pick-up & Drop Service: Leveraging digitization, this innovative service offers unparalleled convenience and transparency. It provides digital updates related to car Pick-up & Drop to Honda Connect users and prevents any manual intervention and follow-up. Users can enjoy service appointment booking, pick-up & drop executive information sharing, real-time tracking, estimated time of arrival, and pick-up and drop car inspection records – all in a seamless paperless process.

Additional reward points on Fuel Pay through HPCL network: In partnership with HPCL, Honda Connect enables customers to seamlessly register for an enhanced fueling experience through HP Pay feature. The integration allows customers to earn 5 HP Pay points (1 point = 0.25 rupees) for every INR 100 spent [which is 25% extra benefit than regular HP customers] on fuel at HP filling stations after registration. These loyalty points can be redeemed for future fuel purchases using generated pay codes. There is no expiry of these points. Additionally, user will be able to check nearby HPCL fuel stations along with facilities available.

Sell/Buy Pre-Owned Cars via Honda Connect: Honda already offers a one-stop solution for buying and selling pre-owned cars through Auto Terrace. With a seamless interface with Auto Terrace, Honda Connect app expands accessibility of Honda Connect users to pre-owned vehicles and enhances app engagement, underscoring Honda’s commitment to providing a seamless and comprehensive experience for buyers and sellers.

Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)#: The system enhances the safety of Honda car owners by providing real-time tyre pressure updates via the Honda Connect app. It offers peace of mind while on the move, sounding an alarm in case of an air leak. TPMS can be installed as accessory and paired with Honda Connect to get live pressure updates.

Drive View Recorder (DVR)#: The system enhances the safety of Honda car owners by recording the surrounding events while the vehicle is in ON. The recorder’s footage can be conveniently viewed through the Honda-Connect app after installation.

The enhanced Honda Connect features will be available across models, providing customers the flexibility to choose the level of connectivity that suits their needs. The Honda Connect works with smart watch devices (Apple Watch OS 4 above & Android Wear OS 2.0 and above) and Alexa remote capability.

One car added in their portfolio can make a lot of difference which is evident thanks to the numbers seen MoM and YoY. Of the 9,400 units sold in October, the Elevate contributed 5,685 units which IMO is great.

The Elevate, hopefully, should Elevate the sales numbers for the coming months for Honda. Honda shouldn't get greedy and hike the prices OR start feature deletion process to save some money.

Honda is currently on ventilator support with the Elevate acting as source of life with respect to the Indian market. Their production capacity of ~1,00,000 units per year is under utilised all these years, hopefully the Elevate will bring in some respite. Even at the current situation, only 10% is being utilised.

All thanks to the Elevate that Honda has achieved this number which has been missing for the past few months.

Hopefully, this car elevates their current position and brings them back into business. This shouldn't get onto their heads and spoil the flow by avoiding any drastic changes to any of the current variants and features that could frustrate customers and drive them towards competition.

Honda should get their other products which are offered in US/UK etc be it in the Hatchback segment or C-SUV/SUV segment.

Honda Cars India registered total sales of 10,867 units in April 2024 as compared to 7,676 units in the same month last year.
  • The company registered 4,351 units in domestic sales and 6,516 units in exports in the month of April 2024.
  • Honda Cars India had registered 5,313 units in domestic sales and exported 2,363 units in April 2023.
Sharing thoughts on April’24 sales performance, Mr. Kunal Behl, Vice President, Marketing & Sales, Honda Cars India Ltd. said, “Our planned production volumes in April were lower due to switchover of Elevate and City production to six-airbag standard variants and the dispatches were aligned accordingly. On the other hand, export of Elevate continues to significantly boost HCIL export volume which grew by 175% over same period last year.”
